«Oldest ‹Older 201 – 400 of 515 Newer› Newest»my favorite memory this summer was camping. we did A LOT of it this year. with family and friends in everything from downpouring rain to mosquito infestations but we had the best time!
My favorite is when my daughter got really sick so we left her with grandma while we took the boys to a band thing for my brother and my 5 year old said "this would be funer with Kenzie" (my daugher)
It help me to know that even when they fight they really love each other.
Spending the afternoon with family on the boat and catching crabs for the first time.
Vacation's with my mom and dad, leaving at the crack of dawn stopping at every historical marker, seeing everything there was to see.... Goodtimes...
My favorite memory of this summer was going to my father's place in NC and seeing all the extended family. It was nice to introduce our newest addition, sweet 6 month old baby girl to all of her peeps. The youngest (by 5 years) and last grandchild.
My trip to Amsterdam in June. It was the first time I went to a conference which was fun plus the city is AWESOME!
my fave summer memory thus far has been mornings spent at the farmers market. nothing like freshness to start a day off right!
My favorite memory from this summer has been spending a lovely Saturday at my in-laws cabin with the whole family for a birthday party. It was a perfect day:)
Thanks for the great giveaway & for sharing that sweet photo of you & your daughter. I remember the first time I went down the "big slide", I can only hope I looked that happy!!
My favorite summer memory was sitting in a beach chair next to my 19 month old son (who hated the sand!) and watching my two older kids hold hands and wade in the water. We watched the sunset and it was peaceful and slightly cool and pure heaven!
This summer we took our girls to Lagoon for the first time and they loved it. My daughter loved to go on all the crazy roller coasters and rides with my brother. They had so much fun together, while I drank my soda and sat safely on the bench and watched! lori
Telling our almost 4-yr-old and almost 2-yr-old that we are having another baby in March!
my sweet little Bella seems to live in the shadow of her cousin who happens to be a year older than her and because of the age difference Abri is the one who gets to experience all of the "firsts"... this summer after a playdate and seeing that her cousin lost another loose tooth, Bella came up to me and said her tooth was loose and tried to wiggle her top tooth, silly girl, I said, your bottom tooth will be the first one to come out and you have plenty of time before that will happen...
she reached up, tried to wiggle her bottom tooth, and much to both of our surprise, her little bottom tooth was loose!!! In my head I could not possibly imagine my "baby's" tooth being loose, but I guess it is time! She was so tickled, I will never forget the look of excitement on her face!
Now I can't wait for her to lose the tooth so I can have some more cute pics to scrap!! {wink!}

So many fun summer memories - sitting by the poolside sipping lemonade, running through sprinklers and enjoying ice pops to name a few =)
My favorite memory from this summer is taking my son to see the Thunderbirds air show. He loved watching them!
My favorite memory this summer is seeing my son - who feared going in the deeper end of the pool w/his swim instructor and actually cried so hard about it - swim by himself in a lake from the shore to the platform at a friend's lakehouse. It helped that he saw other friends his age do it - he is competitive!

my favorite summer memory is seeing how excited our family was when we told all of them that we are expecting :) and then the shock on all of their faces when we told them that our due date is Dec. 24 :} CRAZY and SILLY all at the same time. Babies are the best medicine.
It would have to be getting our keys to our new house and turning the key and opening the door...my kids ran in and were as happy as can be with our new home!
June 16...giving birth do our second child, a little girl who was truly a blessing for us. We patiently waited for a second child for over a year and I really feel blessed that she is her with us and is perfect in every way. I will NEVER forget that day, truly a WONDERFUL memory.
Our favorite memories from this summer were the countless hours in our pool!! It has been a fun gathering place for friends and family :)
My favorite memory this summer was gong to WYoing and hiking to the Bucking Mules Falls overlook. The reason it was memorable was because I fell a few years ago and broke my knee and my ankle so badly that my foot was turned backward. Before a year of rehab I thought I might never be able to walk again. I will need a knee replacement still, but I hiked 6 miles 2 weeks ago. Yes, I can do hard things.
Definately being able to spend a week with my mom on vacation. we've never been able to do that before and it was a blast. such fun memories
A favorite summer memory that has stuck in my head for so many years would have to be when my brother's and sister and I were young, sitting on the porch steps eating huge chunks of ice cold watermelon and spitting the seeds at each other. We would do this every summer. I still remember the smell of the heat, the feel of the cold watermelon drizzling down my chin and all the laughter we shared! Thank you for the chance to win this gorgeous prize! xo
Hmm, I'd have to say just getting up early in the morning and taking my dog for a nice long walk. So relaxing! Thanks for the chance at the giveaway!
The look on my daughter's face when she learned to swim.
my favorite memory of the summer is watching the boys on the bumber boats...not really bumping anyone but just having a blast!

This summer it would have to be just enjoying each and every day - not having any work worries at all is great! The best memory though is taking my baby girl to the pool and seeing her enjoy the water. Summer is passing by far too quickly...

See my daughter learning how to swim. It's priceless know that she is safe in the water.
my favorite memory isn't anything too big...just walking down to the summer concerts that they have in our town center on tuesday nights with the kids. We bring a blanket and picnic, listen to great music and see lots of friends.
There are so many its hard to pick one, but I would have to say my favorite memory from this summer is my daughter fishing for the first time. Although my husband tried and tried to get her interested in the fish and the fishing pole, she was way too focused on the worms!!! She would pick them up and drop them in the water to "feed the fish!"
My favorite memory is going to Texas to visit family and playing games every night and the 'old' people (we are in our 40's) beating the youngins every time. They didn't like it. It was just a great time of laughter and fun.
My favorite memory this summer was taking my dogs to a park and letting them off their leash- something difficult to do living in NYC. The excitement in their eyes- to be able to run around free spirited like crazy kids was truly priceless!
All of my brothers and sisters being together again for my sisters wedding...that doesn't happen often because my sister is a missionary in Bolivia.

Favorite summer memory has been watching our 15 month old learn to walk! I love that each day she gets a little bit better at it.
My favorite summer memory... watching my son learn to play in the water for the first time. He went down the water slide over and over for hours. The poor lifeguard got to know him on a first name basis!
My four year old learning to boogie board at Newport Beach Ca. His smile after he caught his first wave still sticks in my mind :)

watching my husband play with the kiddos in the water today... what an awesome dad, not to mention a wonderful husband!
My favorite summer memory (or one of the many) is coming home one Sunday afternoon and finding my husband in the backyard with the kids (dressed in full Sunday garb)playing in the sprinklers. I grabbed my camera and snapped a handful of super adorable shots.
My favorite memory was when I was a child and we would leave So. California on Friday as soon as my dad got off for work and drive all night for Idaho. We would hit Mesquite around 1:00 or 2:00 am and would check into a hotel and swim to cool off! It would be like 85 degrees in the middle of the night! Then we would load back up in the car and head for Idaho Falls! In the afternoon I would see the Grain Silos in Shelley and know we were close! The 2 weeks in Idaho was always Heaven! Later we moved back and I have been an Idaho girl for 35 years! I love Idaho!
Favourite summer memory-watching my daughters and nieces playing together (10, 5, 4 and 2). We live much too far apart and our visits are few and far between. So their time together is always special.
Liz you are way to nice... look at all those fun goodies.. I want to come play at your house ;)
I loved spending time with the kids and doing the little things like, roasting marshmallows on the grill in the back yard, setting up the tent and telling "scary stories" to each other.. acting like we are on vacation.. or going to the water park and watching Liberty try to get a drink out of the shooting fountains asit squirts up her nose.. isn't that what summer is all about.. the little things.. the smells, the sounds of the kids laughing, and the memories.. I loved every minuet of this summer and felt like it went buy way to fast..
Chasing down the ice cream truck in our neighborhood with the kids and seeing their faces light up when they selected their favorite treats!
The kids finally learning to tie their own show laces, with the help of Dad of course.
My favorite summer memory is taking our children to our local children's discovery museum. They both had such an amazing time, and we had so much fun watching and playing with them.

My favorite summer memory just happened last week on our vacation. It was two extremely entertaining games of bowling. We had all 11 family members playing (ages 3 to 57) and boy oh boy were we a sight to see. I can't remember the last time I have laughed that hard. Good times. Good times.

The simple pleasure of spending my days at the neighborhood pool with my 2 youngest boys.
My favorite memory this summer was taking my girls, Avery and Izabela, to the see the ocean for the very first time. Magical.
If not the whole summer, then the moment my two girls opened the door to my hospital room, grinning so huge, but with wide, curious, even anxious eyes as they came over to meet their new baby sister. Gracie, 17 months old, giggled and giggled, saying "Oh, baby Addie, baby Addie" and Livi, 3 1/2 years old, saying "Now we have THREE princesses!"
Hearing my two year old respond, "I love you more," ever so softly when I told him I loved him!
My favorite memory this summer was taking my oldest daughter to get her learners permit. I was so excited for her and it was something she has been looking forward to all year! I have a great picture of her right after she got it that's just waiting to be scrapbooked!!

Best memory this summer will be my Dad waking up from his cardiac arrest and subsequent bypass surgery. What a miracle!
My favorite summer memory was watching my son take his first swimming lessons. To see him put his little face in the water and to practice his "Micheal Phelps" strokes... Absolutely adorable!
As a teacher, some of my favorite memories are summer ones, when I get to slow down and be a SAHM!
Watching my sons T-ball games. It is so funny. One of my favorite sports I think.
Watching my sons T-ball games. It is so funny. One of my favorite sports I think.
Watching my baby (granted, my five-year-old baby) jump off the diving board on the last day of swim class. First my heart sank to my toes, then, I had to force myself not to jump in after him, and then I burst into tears of shock and awe when he surfaced, then tucked his head and made for the edge. So proud.
watching my daughter have so much fun in the kiddie pool in the backyard, she loved it! and so did i :)

My favorite memory this summer was finally getting to take my boys to Lagoon! They are 6 and 3, so we spent most of the time on the kiddie rides but they had a blast! I love to see them have so much fun, especially for the whole day! They are still talking about it!

As we are just finishing winter here, it is so nice to think about sumnmer and all that it entails. I love our summer holiday to the beach, the kids are so happy running in and out of the waves. We could spend all day there love those special smiles, especially when they accomplish a new skill like catching a wave on their boogey board all on thier own. I can't wait to smell that fresh summer air!
My favorite summer time memory has been watching my baby start walking! She picked it up so quickly and hasn't stopped since!
Seeing the sun go down in the see @turkey, with my husband and son... On the balcony of our crappy appartment, during our even more crappy vacation... But so happy together!!
This summer was the summer of the pool. Swim lessons was number one priority. One of my favorite memories is when I watched my son swim from the wall to me with NO FEAR. I'm so excited to see his confidence in himself soar.
My favorite summer memory was not doing anything....just relaxing, and not worrying about anything....

Well it definitely woudln't be the sleepover for five 9-10 yos that my dd had a few weeks ago. Who knew all that drama started so young?! Instead my favorite memory was a recent trip to the beach with friends. All the kids played together so nicely and they even made a new friend, a frog they affectionately named Hopper. My ds cried when we had to leave little Hopper behind and go home.
My favourite summer memory is spending the day lazing on the trampoline reading magazines with my sisters.
Visiting my parents in Nova Scotia and basking in the serene surroundings of endless evergreens, quaint & colorful fishing harbors and coastal wildlife....God's glory and majesty prevalent in the jagged cliffs and crashing waves.
My favorite memory from this summer is getting the sweetest foster baby! He is an amazing baby and we are having so much fun with him as part of our family.
My favourite memory of this summer is of watching my two year old son discovering the hosepipe in Grany's garden :)
For me.. it was summer my son was born (July 2007). There will never be another summer like that one ever. It was scary,and exciting all at the same time!!

Having my grandma come visit us for her 82nd birthday!
My favorite summer memory is going down the "lazy river" at our local amusement park with my sons.
Strangly enough, your favorite memory is my favorite as well. Yesterday we took our girls to the Pickle Festival and my oldest daughter Emma and I rode on the big slide as well. This was always my favorite at the carnivals but I didn't remember how fast it was and how your tummy dropped. Emma said she loved it but when I asked if she wanted to go again, she shook her head strongly!!

I grew up in a small Texas town. My dad was asst. principal of the middle school and the 7th grade math teacher, but in the summers he ran the city pool. I spent EVERY day at the pool with him during the summers and loved that he was always in that lifeguard chair, watching over me. He passed away at age 60 (20 years ago) and I still miss him terribly, but at least I have those great summer memories!

I have to be selfish my favorite summer memory from this summer would have been spending the day with my husband walking around downtown Charleston and eating at a wonderful italian restuarant.Oh the reason it was a favorite is that our kids were in Florida at grandma and grandpa house.

my most cherished summer memory is the time spent with my grandparents swimming in their pool and hanging out at their house....especially since my pop-pop passed away unexpectedly last saturday. we're so blessed to have known him and i'm so glad that my own boys knew their "pop-pop the great" :)
No question, swiming at the local town pool. The funniest part is when we were little we just biked there wearing nothing but our suits with a towel around our necks. Can you even imagine riding through town wearing nothing but your suit? Ahh the innocence of childhood.
4th of July weekend would be my favorite memory this summer. We had a small family and friend yard party and everyone was able to be there!
My favorite memory was a vacation to the beach. My daughter wasn't thrilled about the beach, but she loved the huge water slide at the hotel. She was too little to go down it, but she's a thrill seeker, so we snuck her on to ride with my husband. She LOVED it.
my favorite summer memory is when my babies come into my bedroom early in the morning and lay down with me in the bed.. we either go to sleep or watch cartoons...
We went on a little mini-vacay, and the best part was just hanging out at the hotel with my boys, popping popcorn and watching Food Network in our jammies!

My favorite memory of this summer has to be the night my husband and I were invited by our Chinese friends to their family restaurant for an authentic dinner. Ten different plates and none are on the menu. It was exciting to learn a little more about our friends and their culture. Food and Friends = 2 of my favorite things.
Escaping the city life and heading out on a road trip to go surfing on the Pacific Ocean.
One of my fave summer memories is from last week..lol
My 5 year old son is obsessed with Elvis Presley, and he decided to put on an Elvis show for my entire family. He put on the clothes, added a piece of a fern for his chest hair, and my parents got up to dance while my siblings sang into their microphones(garden hose, etc)
It was hilarious
Favorite day this summer was going to the zoo with my little ones and feeding the giraffe.

My favorite summer memory was having our family visit from the Midwest. We miss them so much now that we have moved to Colorado.

My favorite summer memory this year is taking our daughters to Lion Country Safari and watching their faces as they fed the giraffe for the first time, I will never forget the look on their faces or the fact that our 2 1/2 year old said to the giraffe "nice..take it nice" that's what she says to our dog when she give him a biscuit and our 5 1/2 just threw the biscuit at the giraffe since she was scared.
Have a wonderful weekend!

My favorite summer memory is this-we went whale watching in Santa Barbara and my daughter complained about the long bumpy boat ride out to where the whales were. She was getting a little seasick and impatient. All of the sudden, we saw the whale's spout in the distance. She saw TWO whales rise out of the water and screamed "this is awesome, this is SOOOO awesome" with a huge smile on her face. I knew it would be worth it....Heather C.
My favortie summer memory this year was trying the knee-board for the first time this year! I got up on the 3rd try!

EvErY Single DAY of Summer is my favorite!! ...but if I had to pick one... The day me, my sisters, and my mom all went out to eat for our June Birthdays...at WAFFLE HOUSE!! We all laugh so loud when we get together and we of course exchanged fun & crazy birthday presents. I'm sure the old man truckers sitting at the bar got a few wide-eyed peeks at us throwing lingerie at each other. Yes, fun times indeed. HaHaHa!!
Well mine was a tie....my son coming in as a closer for his team pitching no outs bases loaded and made all three outs himself AMAZING!!! Then my daughter's team ending their season with a second place in their tourney they played awesome!! Great summer memories....

First, Don't enter me in the contest. I am entering for fun! :)
Second, hands down my favorite memory this summer was the birth of my son Sean Daniel Harper on the 4th of July and my daughter Madi meeting him for the first time at the hospital. Never would have thought I would have delivered on a holiday. Now the fireworks will have a special meaning every year.
Third...where the heck do you shop and find such CUTE clothes! I look to you for fashion inspiration because I am clueless. LOL! XOXO
My favorite summer memory would have to be the summers spent by the ocean in Maine. The smell of the salty air and the sound of the waves make me feel like a kid again!

My most fondest summer memory is our first vacation as a family. Up until that point all our travels had involved visiting other family, but when my children were 4 and 2 we went on our first beach vacation, just us. It was perfect.
favorite summer memory...i'm sure it'll be next weekend when we can finally get to the beach!!
My favorite summer memory this year is when we were blowing up my son's first pool and when we got done blowing it up, I sit it down on the ground and our miniature yorkie jumped inside the pool because he was so excited, or he had to be his brother inside first. Luckily I had the camera ready for pictures of our son's first time swimming and was able to capture our dog sitting insite the pool! Our son thought it was pretty funny too!
Watching my eldest turn 10...we invited 6 buddies over for a big sleep over with a neighborhood scavenger hunt and swimming in the backyard pool. I loved watching him enjoy all his buddies and play like a kid but I get choked up wondering where the past 10 years have gone...don't blink...you will miss it!
My fav. summer memory has been moving into our new home. Although it's been a hard year for us & sad to leave our house it is a GREAT fresh start for us! Carly S.
Can I have two favorite memories??
Hosting our first ever family reunion and making smores with our boys for the first time!
My favorite memory this year was to just spend quality time with my daughters. My oldest is going to be a senior this year and I know this is the last summer I have with her of just "chillaxin"......next summer is going to be filled with her going off to college and it will be a tough one. So for me, this summer was mission accoumplished :)
My favorite (end of summer) memory was after school this past Friday when I asked my youngest (in Kindergarten), "Did you really make an escape plan to get out of school?" He nods his head with a yes motion, looks VERY serious and says, "I missed my big brother!". The best part, his big brother is at the same school, one hallway away, and the escape plan was to come HOME to see big brother! What a great memory to end our chapter of Summer '09! Thanks for letting me share!
My favorite summer memory this year is taking the kids camping at Bryce Canyon and spending time just relaxing with them and grandma and grandpa there! Good times!
Enjoying our almost nightly walks down to the creek to throw rocks. Has been a family favorite time for the last couple years. Hopefully my girls will remember it when they get older.
